It's probably mostly a matter of choosing the right fur for your knees, back, shoulders & elbows during construction and then picking the appropriate corrugated cardboard dance mat. You might want to go with kevlar construction on the top of the head for when you start spinning on your noggin.

Re: Are You A Furry?

I happened to stumble on a video a little while ago where fursuiters were having a dance competition at a con. It was very cool.

Awesome photo Tycho!

Re: Are You A Furry?

Hey, that's awesome Tycho! Congratulations! It's particularly good to see that the community receive you with such enthusiasm and warmth, I think most people don't publicly fursuit because they think the public will think they're weird. The story about the 95 year old lady was really sweet too!

that's the same reason I'm a shape-shifter. I get to feel included but always revert back to non-fur

Re: Are You A Furry?

Yeah, who a I kidding. I'm a furry fan.The only thing that makes me different from other furry fans is that half of me DOESN'T want to be a furry. This hal considers that I should spend more, way more time on normal, day to day subjects, and less thinking about animal characters with human characteristics, which are fictional and, although it's be great to imagine how it'd be if they were real, distract me from reality.Boy, am I crazy!

You're a non-fur with a black panther fursona.

I got a few friends with fursonas, they don't consider themselves to be furry and I agree with them. The reason why they have a sona is because one friend got a sona and the rest hopped on the bandwagon.

Brawlz and I go way back, it's just gentle ribbing by one old forum member on another.

Re: Are You A Furry?

Oh sorry, I keep forgetting that Brawlz was a part of the forums way before me, but ya I've seen a fair amount of people with fursonas who aren't furry.

As opposed to humans with animal characteristics?

I've met some of those in person. And believe me I didn't like them at all.

As C.S.Lewis wrote in his book "Out of the Silent Planet" when Ransom, the novel's protagonist, meets one of Mars inhabithants, he describes it as: "Looking like a man that resembled an animal, or like an animal that resembled a man. Nothing more unpleseant than the former, nothing more appealing than the latter....."

Re: Are You A Furry?

I almost can't believe some of you have been dwelling in the internet when I was one year old.And I would probably vote you for the first fursuiting president of U.S.A. but mostly because I wanna see that country buuuuuuuuuuuuurn! With da lemons!
